Can ducklings eat um medicated chicken feed? Or do they need chick starter feed?

The best feed is a starter feed specifically for ducklings. You can feed non medicated chick starter but you need to add brewers yeast to the feed, or niacin (100-150 mgper gallon) to the water. Ducklings require more vitamins than chicks.

Yes, but as said you'll need added niacin...
